great talk @j0rge !  
quick question, at 47:50 when you’re talking about ollama in a container on vscode, you are using devpod for that right?

I’ve got my ollama in my homebrew container but I haven’t had a chance to play with it in the last 2 months or so. How’s it working out for you so far?

@j0rge Great talk! Thx!

Just wanted to mention: I have a Lenovo ThinkPad X13s ARM64 machine sitting here. For about a year I’m closely following the community’s effort to have mainline Linux support on this device, w/ lot’s of Arch users in the game. So far, I myself had the best experience w/ Debian (sid, 11,12 by Linaro, now Trixie) and Ubuntu (23.10)—BUT I would LOVE to have Bluefin on this device.

That said: I’m ready and willing to help w/ testing. Looking forward to play w/ even early Bluefin arm builds on my X13s. 🙌
